In the process, I would love to further cultivate my passion for music, writing, and generally building things. Please enjoy the site and don't hesitate to say hello!
Alright!! Many thanks goes to you for putting this on the site, Chris. It really is…appreciated. 😉
WOOW, Mr. Kudo is behind the Raiden V OST??! VERY Awe-Some!!!!!! xD I welcome that with open arms, what about you, Chris? It’s worth noting that on the Twitter MOSS Page, one of the directors stated that Kudo is going for a “Fresh New Feel”. Just wanted to let you know that, sir. 🙂 February 25th isn’t that far off, can’t absolutely wait!!! xD 😀
Thanks Jacob! I haven’t listened extensively to the earlier Raiden soundtracks but have been meaning too. Did you ever check out the Caladrius soundtracks?
